'•'The  cost  of  living  should  be  so  balanced  as  to 
secure  the  greatest  comfort  and  convenience  possible

"The  temptation  to  spend  for  things  pleasant 
but  not  needful  or  even  beautiful,  either  for  the 
household  or  for  personal  gratifications  are  many, 
and  it  requires  some  moral  support,  such  as  an  ac- 
count book  or  some  great  ideal  to  strive  for,  to  keep 
the  pocketbook  closed. '  '—ELLEN  H.  RICHARDS.

THRIFT  BY  HOUSEHOLD 
ACCOUNTING 

In  order  to  help  toward  thrift,  household  accounts  should  tell  how  money 
has  been  spent  and  how  it  could  perhaps  be  spent  to  better  advantage. 

It  is  especially  important  to  know  certain  things  about  the  way  money 
is  being  spent. 

The  amount  being  spent  for  housing  the  family  is  worth  knowing,  for 
usually  not  more  than  one-fifth  of  the  income  can  be  spent  for  this  and 
leave  enough  for  the  other  necessary  expenses.  A  good  house  is  worth 
having,  but  one  should  know  how  much  of  the  family  income  is  being 
spent  for  it. 

It  is  also  important  to  know  how  much  is  being  used  for  housekeeping 
expenses,  and  how  much  is  being  invested  in  household  furnishings. 

Many  families  know  how  much  they  are  spending  for  food,  but  if  food 
costs  are  to  be  kept  low  and  the  family  is  still  to  be  adequately  fed,  it 
is  also  worth  while  to  know  how  much  is  being  used  for  different  types 
of  food. 

Much  meat  usually  makes  a  high  cost  diet.  Milk  is  a  kind  of  protein 
food  especially  necessary  for  children  and  is  also  so  valuable  for  grown 
people  that  it  should  always  be  freely  used  even  when  economy  is  being 
carefully  considered.  A  total  weekly  expenditure  for  other  protein  foods 
than  milk  need  not  be  large,  however,  in  order  to  supply  enough  nourish- 
ment of  this  kind  for  the  family. 

Fruits  and  vegetables  are  necessary  in  the  diet.  If  you  have  to  econo- 
mize, use  the  cheaper  kinds,  but  do  not  leave  them  out  of  the  diet  or  try 
to  use  them  too  little. 

Flour,  meal,  macaroni,  rice,  and  other  cereals,  bread,  and  crackers,  are 
all  so  nutritious  in  comparison  with  cost  that  a  generous  use  of  them  usually 
makes  a  low  cost  diet. 

Fat  in  the  form  of  butter  or  olive  oil  is  rather  expensive,  and  fully  as 
much  nourishment  is  secured  from  the  cheaper  fats.  Use  some  fat  in  the 
diet  each  day,  but  do  not  let  this  part  of  your  food  expenditure  mount  up 
too  high  if  you  are  trying  to  economize. 

Sugar  and  other  sweet  foods  are  inexpensive,  but  it  is  not  a  good  plan 
to  use  them  too  freely,  especially  for  children,  because  of  their  tendency 
to  cause  digestive  disturbances. 

Tea,  coffee,  and  other  beverages  have  practically  no  nutritive  value  and, 
for  the  sake  of  economy  if  for  no  other  reason,  too  much  money  should 
not  be  paid  out  for  them. 

All  the  expenses  just  considered  are  household  expenses  and  are  for  the 
benefit  of  the  family  as  a  whole.  An  expense  for  clothing,  or  for  car  fare,

4  THRIFT   BV    HOUSEHOLD   ACCOUNTING 

lunch,  health,  recreation,  education,  insurance,  etc.,  is  usually  for  the  bene- 
fit of  a  certain  member  of  the  family,  and  in  keeping  accounts  it  is  worth 
while  to  consider  the  amounts  being  used  by  and  for  the  different  mem- 
bers of  the  family,  so  that  there  may  be  always  a  wise  and  just  division 
of  the  family  income  and  no  one  member  will  unconsciously  have  more 
than  a  necessary  share. 

In  addition  to  recording  and  studying  expenses  during  the  week,  it  is 
also  worth  while  to  compare  the  various  totals  of  the  week's  expenses  with 
the  totals  of  expenses  during  other  weeks. 

It  is  also  often  advantageous  to  keep  a  record  of  savings  so  as  to  en- 
courage their  increase,  and  a  record  of  debts  so  as  to  encourage  their 
decrease. 

DIRECTIONS   FOR    KEEPING   ACCOUNTS 

The  account  forms  in  this  book  are  planned  for  the  keeping  of  accounts 
which  will  easily  and  quickly  give  the  information  just  outlined  as  being 
desirable.  There  is  first  a  series  of  weekly  record  pages,  then  the  sum- 
mary page  upon  which  is  to  be  entered  week  by  week  the  totals  of  the 
various  expenditures,  and  at  the  close  of  the  book  is  a  page  for  the  state- 
ments of  savings  and  debts. 

At  the  beginning  of  each  week  write  the  date  in  the  indicated  space 
at  the  top  of  the  weekly  cash  record  form.  In  the  blank  spaces  at  the  top 
of  the  Personal  Expense  columns  write  the  names  of  the  members  of  the 
family  for  whom  it  is  desired  to  keep  separate  records.  If  there  are  not 
enough  Personal  Expense  columns  on  the  page  as  ruled,  divide  one  or  more 
across  the  middle  to  make  additional  separate  spaces. 

Write  in  the  indicated  space  under  the  heading-  Cash  for  use  an  exact 
statement  of  the  amount  of  cash  which  you  have  on  hand  at  the  beginning 
of  the  week.  When  any  cash  is  received  during  the  week,  enter  it  imme- 
diately in  this  column. 

When  any  money  is  paid  out,  think  for  what  purpose  the  expenditure 
was  made,  look  over  the  headings  of  the  various  columns  and  write  down 
in  the  proper  space  the  date  or  the  day  when  the  expenditure  was  made, 
the  amount  and  kind  of  the  expenditure,  and  the  price  paid.  For  instance, 
if  on  Monday  you  purchased  among  other  things  2  quarts  of  milk  for 
18  cents  and  1^  pounds  of  beef  for  24  cents,  the  entry  in  your  first  food 
column  would  look  like  this: 


Mon. 


2  qt.  milk 
\Y2  Ib.  beef 


$  -18 
.24 


The  other  columns  would  show  similarly  other  expenditures  of  the  day, 
and  on  the  following  days  throughout  the  week  all  expenditures  would  be 
similarly  entered  in  the  appropriate  columns. 


THRIFT    BY    HOUSEHOLD   ACCOUNTING  5 

If  any  money  is  added  to  or  withdrawn  from  your  savings  funds,  record 
it  on  the  page  at  the  back  of  the  book. 

If  any  debts  are  made  or  any  are  paid  off,  record  this  also. 

At  the  end  of  the  week  add  up  the  figures  in  the  various  columns,  and 
enter  the  totals  on  the  summary  page,  in  a  column  dated  the  same  as  the 
weekly  record  sheet. 

Add  up  the  figures  in  this  column,  and  enter  the  total  in  the  space  on 
the  weekly  record  sheet  headed  Cash  Used.  Also  enter  here  any  amount 
paid  on  back  debts  and  any  amount  saved  for  future  use. 

Add  up  the  figures  in  the  column  Cash  For  Use  and  those  just  entered 
in  the  column  Cash  Used.  Enter  these  totals  in  the  last  column  to  the 
right,  and  subtract  the  lower  figure  from  the  upper  figure.  This  will  give 
you  a  statement  of  the  amount  of  cash  which  should  be  on  hand  at  the 
end  of  the  week.  If  the  figure  does  not  agree  with  the  amount  of  cash 
actually  on  hand,  there  has  been  some  mistake  in  the  record.  If  the  mis- 
take cannot  be  found,  write  down  the  amount  unaccounted  for  and  begin 
the  next  week's  account  with  a  true  statement  of  the  amount  of  cash  on 
hand. 

WHAT  DO   THE  RECORDS   SHOW? 

Look  over  your  record  for  the  week,  and  ask  yourself  the  following 
questions : — 

Were  all  the  expenditures  advisable? 

Did  we  always  get  a  good  return  for  our  money? 

How  do  this  week's  expenses  compare  with  the  expenses  of  other  weeks  ? 

Are  we  dividing  our  income  wisely,  or  are  we  extravagant  along  certain 
lines  ? 

How  can  we  plan  so  as  to  spend  our  money  to  even  better  advantage? 

Keeping  household  accounts  will  not  make  you  thrifty,  unless  you  take 
advantage  of  the  information  which  they  will  give  you. 

If  you  wish  to  learn  more  about  planning  your  budget,  or  about  spend- 
ing your  money  thriftily,  ask  a  Home  Economics  teacher  or  a  visiting  house- 
keeper, or  write  to  the  Budget  Committee  or  the  Social  Work  Committee 
of  the  American  Home  Economics  Association,  Baltimore,  Maryland.
